Isaiah Williams Latest News
Inactive Monday
Williams (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game against the Seahawks. The wide receiver missed the last two games with an abdomen injury but was not listed on the injury report as recently as Thursday. Williams has yet to appear in a game this season. The Illinois product signed with Detroit as an undrafted free agent in May.
Clears injury report
Williams (abdomen) was not listed on the Lions' injury report Thursday. Williams was yet to appear in a regular-season game, and he missed the Lions' last two contests due to an abdomen injury. He now appears to be past the issue, and the 23-year-old rookie wide receiver will look to make his NFL debut against the Seahawks on Monday.
Questionable to play Week 3
Williams (abdomen) has been deemed questionable to play Sunday versus the Cardinals. Williams didn't play Week 2 against the Buccaneers due to an abdominal issue, and the injury kept him limited in all three of the Lions' practices this week. As such, he seems to be a true question mark for Sunday's clash with the Cardinals. Even if Williams is cleared to play Week 3, he isn't likely to see much, if any, work on offense because he's at the bottom of Detroit's wideout depth chart.
Limited Wednesday
Williams (abdomen) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. It appears Williams is still nursing the abdomen injury that held him out of the Lions' Week 2 loss to the Buccaneers. The rookie from Illinois' NFL debut could be put on hold again if he's not past this abdomen issue by the time of Sunday's contest. His practice participation Thursday and Friday will likely provide a better indication of his availability for Week 3.
Missing Week 2
Williams (abdomen) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. The rookie wideout from Illinois popped up on the Lions' injury report Thursday with an abdomen issue, and after logging a DNP on Friday, he's been ruled out for Week 2. As of now, the only wide receivers on the Lions' active roster without injury designations are Amon-Ra St. Brown and Kalif Raymond.
Pops up on injury report
Williams (abdomen) was listed as limited on Thursday's practice report. Williams practiced in full Wednesday, so this is a step backward for the Illinois product. He'll have an opportunity to ramp back up his activity level Friday, which should give a clear picture of his chances of suiting up Sunday against the Buccaneers.
Gets chance in Detroit
The Lions signed Williams as an undrafted free agent Friday, Tim Twentyman of the team's official site reports. Williams is undersized at 5-9, 179 pounds, but as Twentyman notes, he was productive at Illinois with over 200 catches 200 for 2,295 and 14 touchdowns over the last three seasons. He now gets an opportunity to compete for a depth role with Detroit.
